Answer to Question 1

humoral response

The humoral response is the immediate response of the immune system when it recognizes an antigen and then makes antibody.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, E
Progressive mobilization is assessing the patient's ability to move their limbs, turn themselves in bed, transfer themselves from bed to chair and back again, and stand and walk. These measurable signs of independent movement represent various stages to which the patient can gradually progress. According to the Joint Commission's National Patient Safety Goals, it is a nursing re-sponsibility to recognize that these patients are at risk for falls while they are learning to regain mobility. Progressive mobilization does not require that the patient perform all ADLs indepen-dently.
